Fang Ming froze and looked up at the sky alongside Black Rabbit and Youyou.

The Sky Screen, which should have ended after Episode 10, lit up again at that very moment.

And it immediately began playing Magic Autumn's opening theme!

"Is this... a rerun?" Fang Ming looked up in a daze.

At first, Fang Ming thought something had gone wrong with the Sky Screen and that it was repeating the events of Episode 10.

But once the opening ended, and he saw the three magical girls along with himself standing behind them, Fang Ming instantly realized that this was no rerun at all!

This was a double episode broadcast!

"No—!" Fang Ming drew a deep breath and stared at the scene on the Sky Screen, his thoughts racing.

Episode 10 followed immediately by Episode 11. If this were a thirteen-episode series, then two episodes today and another two tomorrow would make sense.

But Fang Ming did not believe the remaining plot could fill two whole episodes!

By Fang Ming's calculations, even if the Sky Screen devoted most of its time to fight scenes, polishing and extending every battle sequence, the remaining plot could only last two episodes at most!

So unless something unexpected happened, this was not a double episode broadcast at all.

This was—

"...A triple episode broadcast!?"

Fang Ming stared at the Sky Screen in shock.

Beside him, Black Rabbit Youyou froze at his words. Her dark crimson pupils deepened, and no one knew what she was thinking.

If today was a triple episode broadcast, at the Sky Screen's current pace of one episode per day—

Tomorrow...

Could very well be Season Two!

Youyou and Song Niandong were about to appear!

Release Announcement!

Ahem. Everyone, look over here. I have an announcement.

The book officially goes premium tomorrow!!

Applause, applause!

Anyway, I'm an old author, so I won't go over the same old stuff. Let's get straight to tomorrow's update schedule.

This book could have gone premium last Friday, actually. But I didn't have enough chapters saved up at the time, so I wouldn't have been able to do a mass release. That was why I chose to delay it by a week.

And over this past week, I saved up a full ten chapters!

Which means tomorrow will be an unprecedented ten-chapter release!!

And for the first week, I'll maintain three chapters per day before returning to two daily updates!

Now that the update schedule is covered, let's talk about this book.

The idea for this book... actually came to me last year.

The first three chapters were basically written last year, but for certain reasons, I never posted them, so they got delayed until now.

And in the original setup, the protagonist Fang Ming was a high school student, while Xiao Qiu and the others were middle school students.

But... for certain reasons everyone knows about, I changed the protagonist directly into an adult, and Xiao Qiu and the others also became "adults."

As for exactly how that works... those who know, know.

That's why the first few chapters often described the protagonist as a high school student... Yeah, that was my fault. I wasn't careful enough while revising, ahem. But anyway, they were all minor issues, and they've all been fixed now!

Also, since I update daily, there may be some flaws in the details, such as typos or incorrect word choices. Please bear with me. If you point them out, I'll fix them.

Lastly, thank you to every reader who has continued supporting me!

As always, your support is what motivates me to keep writing!

My deepest thanks!!

Oh, I almost forgot. Let me mention the future update times.

Before the book went premium, I set one chapter at noon and one at night to draw in readers.

But starting tomorrow, under the normal update schedule, all updates will be moved to 6 p.m. In other words, the noon chapter will also be posted at 6 p.m. Whether there are two chapters or three, they'll all be released together!

Please take note.

Anyway, that's all for now. I'm going to get some rest. Tomorrow's update will probably still be around midnight, with all ten chapters released at once!

See you tomorrow!

Love you all~

Mwah~

Back-to-Back Episodes and the Final Battle! (Please Support the First Subscription!)

(Holy shit, holy shit! What did I just see!)

(A double episode broadcast! It's a double episode broadcast!!)

(Being able to watch two episodes in a row makes it worth it even if I die!)

(Why don't we think even bigger? A triple episode broadcast!!!)

When the Sky Screen began showing a new episode again, the comments erupted just as expected.

No one had imagined that Episode 11 would follow immediately after Episode 10. Nothing like this had ever happened before.

But the Sky Screen had appeared less than two months ago, and during its first month, it had only aired one episode per week. So even though everyone was surprised by the double episode broadcast, they did not think too deeply about it.

Rather than investigate it, they might as well enjoy the show first!

[Yu Muqiu and the other two stood before Xiao Bai. Amid the notes released by the Songstress Witch, they flew toward her from three different directions at once!

Across the shattered ruins, streams of pink, blue, and green light landed in separate locations.

Xiao Chun stood the farthest away. She raised her bow and looked at the notes filling the sky. After only a moment's thought, she aimed the vine-green longbow at the heavens.

A glowing arrow formed upon the longbow. The crystal-clear arrow, as exquisite as a work of art, was fired by Xiao Chun into the sky.

The arrow plunged into the clouds within the barrier, instantly spreading a pale green magic circle across the sky.

The magic circle covered the heavens, and then countless arrows poured down like rain!

Clang, clang, clang—

The arrows struck the notes with precision. While a single tiny arrow could not shatter a note, several arrows hitting the same note at once could break it apart.

The sound of the notes shattering resembled piano scales being played. Countless sounds rang out across the sky at once, forming a chaotic yet uniquely rhythmic melody.

Amid the stirring background music, Chen Xiaoxia's attack followed close behind!

"Just saying a couple things made you mad? You're pretty small-minded, Auntie!"

Chen Xiaoxia attacked with words first, then with force.

The massive sword wreathed in blue light slashed toward the Songstress Witch's neck without losing any speed. The strike was fast and ruthless. Clearly, after fighting the Fish Monster Demon last time, Chen Xiaoxia's strength had improved yet again.

But—

It still was not enough!

"What... did you call me?!"

The Songstress Witch was enraged by Chen Xiaoxia once more. She did not even dodge, allowing Chen Xiaoxia's greatsword to strike her neck.

Clang!

Though her body looked like that of a puppet, the greatsword striking her neck produced the sound of metal.

And when they looked at the Songstress Witch herself, her neck was completely unharmed!

"...Huh?"

Chen Xiaoxia blanked out for a moment.

Her neck was that hard?

"Unlikable child, die here!"

The Songstress Witch clearly loathed Chen Xiaoxia to the extreme. In the instant Chen Xiaoxia froze, she aimed a hand at her.

Thump, thump—

Two musical notes appeared in the Songstress Witch's hand. Then, they rapidly grew in her grasp, turning into two enormous notes nearly as tall as a person!

The giant notes crashed into Chen Xiaoxia. The tremendous force they carried sent her flying, smashing her viciously into the ruins of a distant Ferris wheel!

Bang!!

"Xiaoxia!!"

Yu Muqiu, who had been preparing an attack, widened her eyes at the sight. She stopped charging power, and the Convergence Rings at the front of her wand abruptly expanded, instantly launching three layers of rings.

A Magic Cannon condensed within them. After a flash of light, the thick beam erupted instantly, swallowing the Songstress Witch in an instant!

Magic Cannon: Hope's Light!

Rumble!!

The Magic Cannon thundered through the barrier. Any notes it merely touched scattered into powder.

The Songstress Witch, struck head-on by the Magic Cannon, was reduced to only a faint silhouette.

Chen Xiaoxia punched apart a note and climbed unsteadily to her feet from the Ferris wheel ruins. Looking at the Songstress Witch being annihilated by the Magic Cannon, she cheered:

"Direct hit!! Nice one, Xiao Qiu!"

"No..."

In response to Xiaoxia's cheer, Xiao Qiu's expression only grew more grave. "...She's fine."

"What?" Chen Xiaoxia was a little dumbfounded.

Yu Muqiu did not need to explain any further. Chen Xiaoxia understood what she meant by "fine."

As the beam of light faded, the Songstress Witch's figure reappeared before the three girls.

But aside from energy dust drifting from where she had been struck, not even the corner of her clothes had been damaged!]

(?)

(???)

(No, isn't this Demon absurdly strong?! Xiao Qiu's full-power attack can only be fired three times per battle, and it didn't even scratch her?!)

(The final boss... is this the strength of a final boss? This is way too overpowered!)

["That's ridiculous, isn't it?! She's fine after that!!?"

Chen Xiaoxia let out the same cry of shock as the comments.

It was no wonder she was so stunned.

Chen Xiaoxia knew exactly how powerful Xiao Qiu's Magic Cannon was.

Whether it was the Speed Demon from before or the Fish Monster Demon, if they were hit by the Magic Cannon, even if they did not die, they would probably be half-dead.

Even Chen Xiaoxia, who could strengthen her own body, did not dare take Xiao Qiu's Magic Cannon head-on.

Yet now, the Songstress Witch was completely unharmed?!

This was outrageous!

"Hehehe. I thought you were something special, but it seems... this is all you can do."

The Songstress Witch laughed sweetly.

From the power of Yu Muqiu's Magic Cannon, she had already judged the approximate strength of the three girls before her.

They were indeed strong compared to Low-Tier Demons, but compared to her, a Mid-Tier Demon, they were nothing worth mentioning.

Since that was the case, the Songstress Witch no longer needed to hide anything.

"Before... I actually hid for this long because of magical girls with strength like yours... What a—"

The Songstress Witch looked at the three of them:
